Last Looks

If you don't go in expecting too much there is lots to enjoy in this behind the scenes of a movie studio murder. It doesn't take itself too seriously and has lots of licks of a film noir, but a much lighter mood.

I liked it. Probably not enough to watch over and over, but it works as a piece of solid entertainment, and hits the right buttons to make for an entertaining frolic.

Hunnan was standout - I have never seen him in anything but enjoyed his performance. Gibson was good, as usual, if a bit over-the-top with his British accent. But it fit the caricatured mood of the film so it's all good.

Yes its simple and filled with cliché's but still very enjoyable. Could be better? Of course. Could be much worse? Hell yeah. So I'll take what i can here.

I don't write many reviews so when I do the movie has to be really good (or really, really bad). This movies is funny, witty and keeps you guessing. Solid acting all around, not too long and had some quirky characters to keeps things interesting. Definitely one of the better movies I've seen this year. You could say this type of film has been made before and you're probably right - but it's unique and entertaining enough for me to easily recommend it.

I personally don't get on with arty style productions.

I hate that the camera is rarely straight and level or we have to watch the scene unfold from behind a fan, inside a cupboard or from the building opposite.

So at first I was not impressed by this.

But I did actually grow to like it.

This has a real film noir feel about it as the main character slugs it out with thugs between meeting with alluring fem-fatal.

There is a mystery here that you can solve yourself but it is not really Earth shattering.

I watched this with my girlfriend and we both enjoyed it.

The characters are quirky and interesting and I enjoyed the way the story unfolded in several layers.

This kinda detective thrillers used to be regular in the late 80s n early 90s.

This one reminded me of Chinatown too.

The movie is not at all boring n moves at a decent pace.

There are many poorly developed characters n the only flaw i found is rather than making it into a dark n tension filled murder mystery, the makers opted it the more comical n light hearted approach.
